Stand at the viewpoint. As the sun dips toward the WSW, the granite face of The Governor Rock and the Nandewar wilderness catch the final warm light. This is the key moment for photography.

After the light fades, head back to the car park. Check local transport options for a ride into Narrabri town center for dinner, as there are no facilities at the lookout.
